Week 3 Guest Designing for JUGS
It's definitely looking and feeling like Autumn in my neck of the woods. I'm always glad to say goodbye to high temps and I enjoy seeing the leaves change color. Not a big fan of leaves all over the ground and blowing into the garage, however.😒
Really love the cute polka dot candle, but decided to use my unopened Birch Press Adornment Pumpkin die for a Thanksgiving card.
I picked out 2 shades of orange cardstock and used the lighter one for the top layer. Not sure why it looks beige in the photo. I blended some ink on the solid pumpkin under the outlines of the segments for more depth. The stem and vine were die cut from 2 shades of green cardstock in my scrap box. I also love the leaves in the mood board, so dry embossed a panel of PTI Classic Kraft. The edges were inked with Classic Kraft and I attached the burlap ribbon before adhering the panel to a Classic Kraft card. The PTI word was die cut from Classic Kraft scraps, stacked, inked with Classic Kraft and covered with shimmer. There's a short video in my IG post. I'm entering Snippets Playground and WAW. 
Thanks so much for taking time to stop by. If your blog address is in your profile or comment, I will visit you.

The embossed background looks fabulous with the large orange pumpkin, Greta. The extra inking added a lot of dimension.
ReplyDeleteGreta... the background is amazing. Such a cool embossing folder...must be 3D, the definition is wonderful. Pumpkin is great...Birch Press is doing some great dies now. And I know that PTI sentiment...you have had that in your stash for a long time. I use the thankful from the set all the time. Great card...so much visual interest! We are loving that you are sharing your talents with us this month!
